THE NH PHYSICIAN LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM

is a collaboration between the New Hampshire Medical Society, the

New Hampshire Hospital Association and nationally recognized thought-

leaders from the University of New Hampshire’s Peter T. Paul College of

Business and Economics and College of Health and Human Services.

The goal of the program is to cultivate effective physician leadership

across the Granite State from the bedside to the boardroom by teaching

leadership, management, communication skills, and empowering

physicians to foster change among their colleagues.

The New Hampshire Physician Leadership Development Program is designed to:

• Build on physician learning styles by providing longitudinal learning experiences through a case-based curriculum.

• Encompass learning highly relevant to physician life experiences.

• Accommodate physicians’ busy lives by scheduling 20 dynamic interactive sessions over 2 years.

• Develop practical insights and skills directly applicable to practice opportunities and challenges.

• Strengthen physician leadership skills across disciplines and practice settings.

Who Should Attend

The program is targeted to practicing physicians who have taken on increasing levels of responsibility in their careers and aspire to be outstanding leaders. The program begins in September 2020 and ends June 2022.

Ideal candidates will possess:

• A desire to help shape the future of healthcare

• A willingness to learn and grow as physician leaders

• A drive to influence the practice of medicine in their practice or system.

Benefits of Participating

Upon completion of the Physician Leadership Development Program, participants will have the skills and expertise to:

• Put into relevant context the importance of physician leadership in the emerging health care delivery system.

• Develop the tools needed to become effective health system leaders and make a difference.

• Apply new skills and advice from instructors and colleagues for a specific project from their practice.

“This program really brings up issues and behaviors

that I have been able to identify and use immediately

in my position as President of the Medical Staff. These

are the things that challenge me as a leader, and it is

helpful to gain skills and practice those skills.”
